John Locke, Master Networker Seeing Brian live is always a treat, but reading There Are No Overachievers is like having Brian with me every day. The chapter called Be Easy to Impress and Hard to Offend really struck a chord in me. Look for ways to be impressed, and instead of taking offense at criticism you encounter, transform negative feedback into ways to improve, exceed expectations, and generate loyalty. It is at the heart of everything our company is about, and has helped us build the largest global sourcing association in the world. My copy is dog-eared already; I will be referring to for years to come.

Dr. Barbara Waterhouse, Senior Minister at Center for Spiritual Living, Asheville What would you do if you knew you could not fail? It's a question I posed often to our oldest daughter when she was competing internationally. I never thought of it being my own motto - until reading There Are No Overachievers. After nearly 20 years, I am still learning from Brian Biro's life lessons - and I'm now aware of how important they are in the transition stage of my life, both personally and professionally. Thanks so much for the reminder, Brian!
Suzan O Sweeney, AVP of External Partnerships at The Hartford Over the years, I've read hundreds of leadership books, but There Are No Overachievers stands alone. It's an insightful and astute guide on how to be your very best at home and at work. Although I've been fortunate to enjoy great success in my career overall, there are so many times that I missed my window of opportunity to positively impact others' lives. I was too easy to offend and hard to impress. Brian Biro is a life-changer. I enthusiastically recommend this book. It will bring you closer to your colleagues, your friends, and your loved ones.
